Most of the pictures I've posted so far make Shetland look a pretty romantic place. In reality, however, it's a very bleak, windswept landscape. It's covered in vast expanses of treeless peatland - with sheep. I think that's because they're the only animal that doesn't get blown over by the wind.
Guess that's why the Shetland ponies aren't to tall either so that they don't get blown over by the wind - you'd better watch out for yourself.
